Shopping column remainder: Macy's event
This came in too late for last Sunday's retail column, but I wanted to make sure to get it up somewhere.
Macy's, which has locations at Friendly Center and off Wendover Avenue in Greensboro and at Hanes Mall in Winston-Salem, will host it second annual "Shop for a Cause" charity event on Saturday.
Macy's donates tickets to regional and local charities, which sell the tickets for $5 each and keep the proceeds. Shoppers can redeem their tickets at any Macy's store Saturday to get deals on clothing, accessories and home goods.
The inaugural event raised nearly $10 million last year, according to a news release from Macy's.
